In its recommendation to the prime minister, OGRA had recommended jacking up the price of diesel and petrol by Rs5 per litre.
Therefore, following the prime minister's decision, the petrol price will likely remain unchanged at Rs145.82 per litre and that the price of diesel will remain Rs142.62 per litre as before.
The prices of kerosene oil and light diesel are also expected to remain at Rs116.53 and Rs114.07 respectively.
